Three flights to a
place few people see.
Anchorage. Iliamna. Six Mile Lake. From the moment you land in Alaska, we handle the rest.
From the city to the river.
Land at ANC.
Fly into Ted Stevens Anchorage International. Most guests overnight in Anchorage and fly out to the lodge the next morning. We can recommend hotels.
Bush flight to the bay.
A short scheduled flight on one of Alaska's regional carriers takes you from Anchorage to Iliamna, on the shore of Lake Iliamna. Roughly 90 minutes.
Final hop to Six Mile Lake.
Our floatplane meets you in Iliamna and flies you the last leg to Newhalen Lodge in Nondalton. You're on the water within the hour.

What it actually does out here.
Long daylight, fish active.
Peak sockeye, warmest.
Silvers arrive, dry-fly trout.
Trophy rainbows, vivid color.
Bristol Bay weather changes by the hour. Rain, sun, wind — sometimes all in the same morning. That's why we have a private fleet: when one valley is socked in, we fly to the next.
